Liquid Glass.

I jest. Liquid Glass is precisely the reason I'm still running iOS 18, and it's also the case that Microsoft Windows Vista (I think it was) had something similar. But at least Microsoft allowed you to turn it entirely off.

Twice a year, for six months each time.

A possibly offsetting thing is the fact that much less of the drug would be needed, since it's not getting diluted by your entire body. For drugs that are very expensive, that could be important.

Now all we need is dilithium crystals!

If you look at the original article (linked to in the post), it contains responses by a few of the security companies whose software was found faulty. Predictably, they say something like "We take security seriously, and we're working hard every day."

Until someone gets sued for malpractice (figuratively), this probably won't change.

Just like we need more gas stations in the middle of nowhere. Since such gas stations must be "less likely to be built or profitable", obviously they don't exist :).

So...how many gas station nozzles would it take to fuel all gas-powered cars at once? Wait, there aren't that many gas stations! Obvious catastrophe!

"After age 64, there was no significant change in the amount of sex people have, largely because this group reports having sex less frequently to begin with, the researchers said."

And get off my lawn!

"...shortly after Jesus was crucified people thought he was coming back and they thought he was coming back real soon. So you were told not to bother marrying and going about having kids and having sex because there wasn't any point." Uh, no, they weren't. Not sure where you got that from.

A few early church leaders (notably Paul) did not marry, while others were married (Jesus is said to have healed Peter's mother-in-law--it's pretty hard to have a mother-in-law unless you're married). There were some later (hermits) who also practiced celibacy, but that came later. Not marrying was not really a thing until much later--around 304 AD the Roman Catholic Church adopted a stand on those seeking ordination to be celibate, but that was not for everyone. And the Eastern Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church never really went along with even the priestly celibacy thing. Even in the Roman Catholic church, priestly celibacy wasn't enforced until the 11th century.

"The first country to have a reactor could 'declare a keep-out zone'..." Huh? How does a reactor make that possible? And how big a zone, anyway?

The article does not say the infection came from USB *drives*, it says it comes through USB *ports*.

Now look at your computer. How many things are plugged into USB ports? Keyboard, mouse, camera, microphone, etc. Any of these can carry malware--malware "apps" don't need to be large to call home and download whatever else they need. And where did these things come from? I'll bet most came from China.

Hacker in prison for a decade or so.

That sounds like by the time they get the helicopter to the place the drone was seen from, the drone is long gone.

And what do you know, no government entity did!
